D1 Section Results

The D1 Sac Joaquin Section prelims and finals were held last Wednesday and Friday in Elk Grove. Thirteen Downey Athletes participated. The tp 10 places qualify for the Section Masters meet next Thursday and Friday in Sacramento. Below I will summarize the results of each athlete:

PAUL BILODEAU (300m hurdles)--Paul competed on Wednesday and ran well for the first half of the race but seem to run out of gas at that point to finish in 30th place with a time of 46.30.
KARINA REDDING (300m hurdles)--Karina competed on Wednesday and finished 30th in 55.46
MALCOLM MCCLOUD (Shot Put)--threw on Friday and finished 26th with a throw of 40'6"
DENZELLE MARABLE (High Jump)--jumped on Friday and cleared the opening height of 5'10" but missed 3 times at 6' to finish in 13th.
SIERRA DURHAM (3200m)--Sierra ran on Friday and was in the 10th spot for half the race but faded a bit over the final mile to finish in 11th place with a time of 11:54.22.
ANDREW OSGOOD (1600m, 3200m)--Andrew ran both races on Friday. The 1600m was first. He finished in 18th with a near PR time of 4:35.87. About 90 min later he competed in the 3200m but looked tired. His time of 10:18.63 placed him 22nd.
KYLO VAUGHT (110m hurdles, Triple Jump)--Kylo hurdled on Wednesday and jumped on Friday. In the hurdles I believe that he hit every hurdle. You can imagine that this wouldn't make for the fastest of times. His time of 16.22 placed him 14th. In the triple jump he landed about 38'8" but his whole flight officially was recorded with no distance (I am unsure why).
CONNER FENTON (High Jump)--Conner jumped on Friday. He cleared the opening height of 5'10" and the next height of 6" even. Fortunately many other jumpers missed at 6" or cleared it on a later jump. This set Conner up for 7th place (6'0") and a qualifying spot in the Masters Meet!
SIMONE WEND (Long Jump, High Jump, Triple Jump)--Simone long jumped on Wednesday. Her jump of 15'10.25" was well off of her best and placed her 16th. On Friday she did the HJ and TJ. In the HJ she failed to clear the openning height. At this point she was very frustrated and only had the Triple Jump left. Her first jump was 33'5" which was a PR. Her next jump was even better, 34'3". She saved the best for last as she sailed 34'10.5" on her last jump. This mark placed her 10th overall and qualified her for Masters. The 34'10.5 leap also moved her up the all-time Downey list to #3.
TY CUMMINS (Long Jump, 4x100m Relay)--Ty long jumped on Wednesday. His best leap was 20'9" which was near his PR. It placed him a very respectable 12th place. Ty also and ran the relay on Wednesday in the prelims and Friday in the finals. In Wednesday's prelims the 4x100 team moved the baton nearly flawlessly around the track to finish in 7th place in a new PR time of 43.75. In Friday's finals they had at least two bad passes which resulted in a slower 44.28 time, but still 7th place. They move on to next week's Masters meet.
CALEB LOWE (110m Hurdles, 4x100m Relay)--Caleb hurdled on Wednesday and ran the relay on Wednesday in the prelims and Friday in the finals. In the hurdles, like Kylo, Caleb hit way too many hurdles. He finished in 16.41, 17th place. In Wednesday's prelims the 4x100 team moved the baton nearly flawlessly around the track to finish in 7th place in a new PR time of 43.75. In Friday's finals they had at least two bad passes which resulted in a slower 44.28 time, but still 7th place. They move on to next week's Masters meet.
SHANE GORMAN (200m, 4x100m Relay)--Shane ran the 200m on Wednesday and ran the relay on Wednesday in the prelims and Friday in the finals. In the 200m Shane looked strong in his heat with a time of 23.4 which was 15th overall. In Wednesday's prelims the 4x100 team moved the baton nearly flawlessly around the track to finish in 7th place in a new PR time of 43.75. In Friday's finals they had at least two bad passes which resulted in a slower 44.28 time, but still 7th place. They move on to next week's Masters meet.
JACOB HACKETT (4x100m Relay)--Jacob ran the relay on Wednesday in the prelims and Friday in the finals. In Wednesday's prelims the 4x100 team moved the baton nearly flawlessly around the track to finish in 7th place in a new PR time of 43.75. In Friday's finals they had at least two bad passes which resulted in a slower 44.28 time, but still 7th place. They move on to next week's Masters meet.

So the 4x100 team of Gorman, Cummins, Hackett, and Lowe; Simone Wend in the TJ, and Conner Fenton in the HJ all qualifed for next week's Masters. Sierra Durham will be an alternate in the 3200m and may get to compete if someone else scratches. Good Luck to all of these fine athletes.
